Abstract

People living in the Andes Mountains have been using llamas as pack animals (animals used to move supplies and equipment) for hundreds of years. "Siku" is one name used for panpipes or pan flutes played in Peru! Sizes of panpipes can vary in Andes regions. Many are small yet others are as large as 4 feet long. In this craft, you will be creating a version of a siku (panpipe) that incorporates the same technique!
